Airbyte Cloud release notes

Airbyte Cloud is updated continuously. You always have the latest features and fixes.

October 19, 2026​

Platform

  • If turning on Agent access for a source or destination fails, the status icon next to the toggle now shows a readable error message. Previously, it could show an internal message code instead.

October 16, 2026​

Platform

  • When an AI agent using the Airbyte MCP tries to read from a source or destination that doesn't have agent access turned on, the link it gives you now opens a page where you can confirm and turn on direct access for that connector. If your organization hasn't turned on the context layer yet, an organization admin can turn it on from the same page. Previously, the link opened the connector's settings page.
  • The Agent access descriptions on the Context layer page and on source and destination settings now correctly say that agents can only read from your sources and destinations. Previously, they said agents could also write to them.

October 14, 2026​

Platform

  • You can no longer delete the only workspace in your organization, because an organization must keep at least one workspace. On your last workspace, the Delete your workspace button is now disabled with an explanation, and deleting it through the API returns an error. To remove it, create another workspace first, or contact Airbyte support if your plan allows only one workspace.
  • If you no longer have access to any organization, for example because the only workspace you belonged to was deleted, Airbyte now shows a message asking you to get an invitation from an organization admin, and you can accept that invitation to join the organization. Previously, the app failed to load and you could get an error when accepting a new invitation.

API

  • Error responses from the Airbyte API now include clearer, more actionable descriptions in the detail field that explain what went wrong and how to fix it, for example for authentication failures, missing permissions, sync schedules that run more often than your plan allows, and streams that conflict with another connection. Error types, titles, and HTTP status codes are unchanged. For some validation errors, the description now appears only in detail and is no longer repeated in data.message.

October 13, 2026​

Connections

  • If you try to create a connection with a source or destination that has been deleted, for example through the API or Terraform, Airbyte now rejects the request with an error explaining that the source or destination was deleted. Previously, the connection could be created anyway.

October 9, 2026​

Connections

  • When you create a new connection, the warning that your first sync replicates all historical data in your enabled streams now appears only if your organization is on the Standard plan, a Standard trial, or a Plus plan, which are billed based on data replicated. It no longer appears on capacity-based plans like Pro and Enterprise Flex, where it didn't apply.
  • On capacity-based plans (Pro and Enterprise Flex), the banner that appears on the Connections page when syncs are queued because a region has reached maximum capacity now tells you what you can do about it. Depending on your role and plan, it links to your organization's Usage page so you can allocate more capacity to that region, suggests asking an organization admin to do so, or links to on-demand capacity so your critical connections keep running.

October 6, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization's paid Airbyte Cloud subscription has ended, you can still view your past usage on the Usage pages and your invoice history on the Billing page in Organization settings. Previously, the Usage pages showed no data and the Billing page was hidden once your subscription ended.
  • Airbyte Cloud free trials last 14 days. The sign-up page and the trial banner now show this trial length. Previously, they said 30 days.

October 2, 2026​

Connections

  • The Streams status graph on a connection's Status page now loads reliably for connections whose syncs were retried. Previously, a retried sync could cause the graph to fail to load.

Platform

  • If your organization is on a Plus plan, the Plans page in Organization settings now selects your current credit tier by default and labels it as your current plan. Previously, the page could show a different tier, such as 100 credits instead of your 40-credit plan. You can still pick another tier to upgrade or downgrade.

October 1, 2026​

Connections

  • If a connection is set to "Propagate field changes only" and a table is deleted at the source, Airbyte now removes that table from the connection on the next sync and records the removal in the connection timeline. Previously, the connection kept trying to sync the deleted table until you refreshed the schema.

Platform

  • When you upgrade from the Standard plan to a Plus plan, the confirmation now accurately explains that you're charged immediately for Plus and any unbilled Standard usage, and that your billing cycle restarts that day. Previously, it said your first month would be prorated.

September 30, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization is on the Standard plan or a trial, you now have until October 21 to upgrade to a Plus plan and receive free overage credits. This limited-time offer, announced on September 15, previously ended on September 29. Conditions apply, and the number of free overage credits depends on the Plus plan you select, as shown on the Plans page in Organization settings.

September 25, 2026​

Connections

  • You can now save a source or destination as a draft while you're setting it up. Use the new "Save draft" button to keep an incomplete configuration, come back to it later, and finish when you're ready. Drafts are marked with a "Draft" tag in your source and destination lists and become fully active only after a successful connection test. You can't use a draft in a connection or sync until then.
  • When you connect a Shopify source with OAuth, Airbyte now requests permission to view your store's markets. This lets you sync Shopify market data as the Shopify connector adds support for it. Existing Shopify sources keep working without any action, and the new permission is granted the next time you re-authenticate.

Platform

  • If you use Okta single sign-on, signing in to Airbyte Cloud from the Airbyte tile on your Okta dashboard now works again. Previously, this could fail with an "Invalid parameter: redirect_uri" error, while signing in from the Airbyte login page continued to work.
  • Schema change notifications for sources with very large schemas now reach Slack reliably. If the list of changes is too long for a single Slack message, the notification is shortened and points you to the connection in Airbyte to see all changes.

September 23, 2026​

Connections

  • The tag shown on connections that use on-demand capacity now reads "On-demand" instead of "Burst," matching the name Airbyte uses for this feature everywhere else.
  • If a connector stops responding while Airbyte tests a source or destination or discovers its schema, the operation now fails after a timeout instead of staying stuck until a later safeguard cancels it. Standalone tests and schema refreshes time out after 9 minutes, and schema discovery that runs as part of a sync times out after 30 minutes.

Platform

  • The Standard plan's new pricing, announced on September 15, is now in effect and reflected on the Plans page: $20 per month with 5 credits included, and additional credits at $5 each. The advance notice about the pricing change no longer appears on the Standard plan card.
  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, the dotted line on the data worker usage charts is now labeled "Allocated capacity" instead of "Contracted capacity," because the capacity allocated to a region can differ from the total your contract includes. The label also stays readable when usage bars reach the line.

API

  • When you list a user's permissions through the API, the response no longer includes permissions for workspaces that have been deleted, so it matches the workspaces the user can actually access.

September 22, 2026​

Connections

  • Airbyte now warns you that a connection is at risk of being turned off as soon as it has either failed on every sync for 4 days or failed 20 times in a row, whichever comes first. Previously, both conditions had to be true before the warning was sent, so connections that sync once a day could fail for weeks before you heard about it.

Platform

  • If your organization is on a capacity-based plan (Pro or Enterprise Flex), the workspace Usage page now shows how much data worker capacity is allocated to the workspace's region, next to the region name.

September 18, 2026​

Platform

  • On the Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, permissions you receive through a user group now work everywhere in Airbyte. Previously, if a group granted you access to a workspace, that workspace could be missing from your workspace list and the interface could hide pages and actions you were allowed to use. Group-granted access now shows up the same way as access granted to you directly.

September 17, 2026​

Platform

  • On the Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, when Airbyte staff take an action in your organization as part of a support case, your audit logs now attribute that action to "Airbyte Support" instead of an individual employee's email address, making it clearer which changes came from Airbyte rather than from your own team.
  • Viewing your SCIM configuration no longer creates an audit log entry. Your audit logs now show only actual changes to SCIM settings, not every time an admin opens the page.

September 15, 2026​

Important: Updated pricing model

  • Airbyte Cloud has a new pricing model for self-serve plans (Standard and Plus). Pro and Flex are not affected. For many of you, the price of the Plus plan is significantly cheaper than the price of the Standard plan. We strongly recommend visiting Airbyte's pricing page to determine the optimal plan for you. New Plus plans are available immediately. The Standard plan switches on September 21. Here's what's changing:

    • Standard: the base price for Standard increases from $10 per month to $20 per month. The number of free credits each month also increases from 4 to 5. The price for additional credits increases from $2.50 to $5.00. Single sign on (SSO) is no longer available on Standard, but if you already use SSO, you may continue doing so as long as you keep your plan.
    • Plus: Multiple new pricing tiers are available. All Plus plans include a much larger allocation of credits, less expensive overage credits, 15-minute sync frequency, two workspaces, mappings (renames only), single sign-on, and premium support. Existing Plus subscribers are being moved from 50 to 100 credits and your plan cost has dropped $50. The following Plus tiers are available:
      • 40 credits: $189 (equivalent to $4.75/cr) + $5/cr for overages
      • 100 credits: $449 (equivalent to $4.5/cr) + $5/cr for overages
      • 250 credits: $999 (equivalent to $4/cr) + $4.5/cr for overages
      • 500 credits: $1,799 (equivalent to $3.6/cr) + $4.15/cr for overages
      • 1,000 credits: $3,199 (equivalent to $3.2/cr) + $3.75/cr for overages
      • 2,000 credits: $4,999 (equivalent to $2.5/cr) + $2.5/cr for overages
    • Credit rollovers: Unused credits now roll over for 3 months (previously 2), so you have a full quarter to use them.

    As a temporary incentive to encourage you to optimize your spend, Airbyte is offering limited free overage credits to organizations that upgrade to a higher plan by September 29. Conditions apply, and the number of free overage credits depends on the plan you select.

    To adjust your plan, open Airbyte Cloud and click Organization settings > Plans. See Manage billing and credits for more help.

Platform

  • If SCIM provisioning is enabled for your organization, the notice on a workspace's Members page now explains what to do instead of adding members directly: assign permissions to a user group under Organization settings > User Groups, and manage that group's membership in your identity provider. Previously, the notice only said your identity provider controls membership, without pointing you to user groups.

September 14, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization is on the Plus plan and you choose to downgrade to Standard, the confirmation dialog now explains how the downgrade can affect your organization: 15-minute sync frequency, mappings, single sign-on, multiple workspaces, and premium support are Plus features that Standard doesn't include. It also reminds you that the change takes effect at the end of your billing period. Previously, the dialog only summarized this in one sentence.

September 11, 2026​

Connections

  • Connection mappings are now split into basic and advanced tiers by plan. If your organization is on the Plus plan, you can rename fields; hashing, encryption, and row filtering require the Pro or Flex plan. On Plus, new mappings default to Rename, and the advanced types show an upgrade link to the Plans page, which now lists which mappers each plan includes.

September 10, 2026​

Platform

  • When your organization has reached the number of workspaces your plan includes, hovering over the locked New workspace button now shows how many workspaces you've used out of your limit and what upgrading to Plus or Pro adds, with links to view plans or talk to sales. Previously, the button only told you to upgrade your plan. The upgrade details also now correctly state that the Plus plan includes up to 2 workspaces.
  • If your organization doesn't have a subscription yet, the Billing page now also shows the Flex plan alongside Standard, Plus, and Pro, with a Talk to Sales link. Flex is a hybrid option for enterprises that need Airbyte's managed control plane with data planes they run themselves.

September 9, 2026​

Connections

  • If your connection backfills new or changed columns and its source uses change data capture (CDC), sync runs that follow a propagated schema change now keep your existing sync progress instead of rereading every stream from the beginning. Only new and changed data is synced.

Platform

  • If your organization is on the Plus plan, you can have up to 3 workspaces. When you reach that limit, the create workspace dialog tells you the limit has been reached and that you can upgrade your plan to add more.

September 7, 2026​

Connections

  • Selecting the Stripe source no longer freezes your browser tab. The Setup Guide panel that shows connector documentation stalled while rendering the Stripe docs, which also kept the setup form from loading. It now renders normally.

Platform

  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, the Audit Logs page in Organization settings no longer records entries for automated, system-initiated actions that have no associated user, such as internal updates that happen while a sync runs. Previously, these appeared with an unknown actor alongside the actions your team members took.

September 4, 2026​

Platform

  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, the Audit Logs page in Organization settings now shows a loading indicator while it fetches results after you change a filter or move to another page. Previously, the earlier results stayed on screen with no sign that a new request was in progress.

September 3, 2026​

Platform

  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, the Compare to previous period view of the data worker usage chart in your organization's Usage settings now uses the same peak usage measure as the standard view. Previously, the comparison bars showed a different total, so the two periods didn't line up with the rest of the chart.

September 2, 2026​

Connections

  • The setup guide panel that appears while you configure a source or destination now wraps very long values, such as lengthy OAuth URLs, instead of overflowing the panel. Links written as code inside tables, like the stream names in a connector's supported streams list, now render as clickable links instead of raw Markdown.

Platform

  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, data worker usage now reflects the peak capacity your syncs used at any single point in time. Previously, the peak for each part of a sync was measured separately and added together, which could overstate your usage. This applies to usage recorded on or after September 2, 2026.

API

  • When you read a source or destination with includeSecretCoordinates=true, the response now includes secret coordinates for every secret field, including secrets that Airbyte stores for you. Previously, Airbyte-managed secrets were still masked. Coordinates are opaque pointers, not secret values, and they change whenever the secret is rewritten.
  • Secret coordinates are read-only. If you update a source or destination and include a coordinate that differs from the one already stored for that field, the request is now rejected with an HTTP 400 (Bad Request) error. Sending the existing coordinate back unchanged, or the ********** mask, leaves the stored secret as is.

September 1, 2026​

Connections

  • When you authenticate the Salesforce source or the HubSpot destination with OAuth, the consent step now completes. Airbyte previously formatted part of the authorization request in a way these providers reject, which could cause the authorization to fail.

Platform

  • On Cloud Pro and Enterprise Flex plans, the data worker usage chart in your organization's Usage settings has a new Compare to previous period option. Turning it on shows the selected period next to the equivalent previous day, week, month, quarter, or year, so you can see whether your peak capacity usage is trending up or down.
  • The Billing page now shows the date your next invoice is scheduled to be issued. You see the same date in the confirmation messages when you cancel your subscription or delete a workspace.

August 31, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization is on a capacity-based plan, the Usage page in Organization settings now offers 1Q and 1Y date ranges alongside 1D, 1W, and 1M, so you can review data worker usage across a full quarter or year.
  • The Plus and Pro cards on the Plan page in Organization settings now list the support coverage each plan includes. Hover over the info icon next to a support line to see the exact hours and response times.

August 27, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization is on a capacity-based plan (Pro or Enterprise Flex), the workspace Usage page now shows which region the workspace runs in, alongside its data worker usage. This makes it easier to tell which region's capacity your workspace consumes.
  • If your organization signs in with single sign-on but your plan doesn't include role-based access control, people who sign in for the first time are now added as organization admins. Previously they could be left with a role that nobody in your organization was able to change.
  • If your organization is on the Plus plan, reported usage no longer schedules an unintended downgrade to the Standard plan. Your plan stays as you purchased it.

August 26, 2026​

Platform

  • If your organization has committed data worker capacity, you can now switch the data worker usage graphs between one-day, one-week, and one-month ranges instead of always seeing a fixed window.

API

  • You can now choose the time zone for a cron sync schedule when you create or update a connection through the API, so your syncs run at the hour you expect in your own time zone rather than always in UTC. Error messages for invalid cron schedules also explain the requirements more clearly.

August 25, 2026​

Connections

  • When schema changes are applied to your connection, the affected incremental streams are now backfilled correctly so your destination data stays complete and accurate.
  • When you create a new private link for S3 storage, the DNS name Airbyte gives you is now correct. Previously, the provided hostname could cause connection checks to fail with a certificate error. Existing private links are not changed.

Platform

  • The Data Worker usage chart on the workspace usage page now shows hourly usage as bars, matching the look of the organization usage chart, so it's easier to compare usage across the two views.

August 24, 2026​

Platform

  • If you're an organization admin on the Enterprise Flex plan, you can now view audit logs directly in Airbyte. The new Audit Logs page in your organization settings shows who changed what and when across your organization, with filters for date range, workspace, actor, and operation. Click any entry to see the full details of that event and copy them to your clipboard.

August 21, 2026​

Platform

  • The Data Worker usage chart on your organization's Usage page is easier to read. Each day now has a single bar for peak usage instead of stacked, color-coded workspace segments, and hovering over a bar shows your region's peak next to a per-workspace breakdown. The dates along the bottom of the chart also display correctly now. This chart is available if your plan includes contracted Data Worker capacity.

August 20, 2026​

Connections

  • When Airbyte provides its own OAuth application for a connector, the source and destination setup forms no longer show the manual authentication option. This prevents confusion by hiding fields that asked for developer credentials you don't need.

Platform

  • If your organization manages users through your identity provider with SCIM, workspace settings now show a SCIM badge and no longer allow you to add or change workspace members directly in Airbyte. This keeps your membership consistent with your identity provider.
  • If you store audit logs in your own bucket on the Enterprise Flex plan, Airbyte now organizes those log files into folders by organization and date, making them easier to browse and manage.

August 19, 2026​

Connections

  • When a connector test or schema refresh hits an unexpected internal error, the job now fails immediately with a clear error message instead of appearing to run until it times out.

August 18, 2026​

Connections

  • Setting up or refreshing the schema for a source with a very large number of tables and columns is now more reliable. Previously, these requests could run out of memory and fail before the schema reached you.

August 14, 2026​

Connections

  • Your connections now recover immediately when Airbyte runs into a conflict while starting a sync. Previously, the connection paused for about 10 minutes in this situation, which delayed its next scheduled sync.

Connector Builder

  • Fields that share a linked value keep that link when you switch between the UI and YAML views. Previously, the first switch to YAML could replace shared values with copies, so later edits to one field no longer updated the others.

August 12, 2026​

Connections

  • When you set up a new source or destination, Airbyte now opens the configuration form first instead of the AI setup assistant. You can still switch to the assistant at any time with the Agent/Form toggle at the top of the page.

August 11, 2026​

Platform

  • Airbyte Cloud now uses a new cookie consent tool. You see a redesigned consent banner on your first visit, and you can still change your choices at any time with the Cookie preferences option in your user settings.

August 7, 2026​

Connections

  • Some syncs now run faster. Airbyte correctly reads the processing capacity allotted to a sync and opens as many parallel data channels as that capacity allows, instead of falling back to a single channel.

August 6, 2026​

API

  • Not-found (404) error responses in the API no longer declare a message as required. If you generate a client from Airbyte's API spec, those clients no longer fail to parse a not-found response that comes back without a message.

August 5, 2026​

Platform

  • You can now assign two new workspace roles from the Members page: Source editor and Destination editor. A source editor can create and edit a workspace's sources and connections but not its destinations, and a destination editor can do the reverse. Both roles are available on the Pro and Enterprise Flex plans.

August 3, 2026​

Platform

  • Your Data Worker usage now reflects only the capacity your syncs are actually using. Previously, if a job reached a failed or cancelled state moments before Airbyte recorded its capacity reservation, that capacity stayed reserved indefinitely, overstating your organization's usage and leaving less capacity available for new syncs.

July 27, 2026​

Platform

  • The invitation code that lets someone join your organization or workspace is now sent only to the person you invited. It's no longer visible to anyone viewing your list of pending invitations, so only the intended recipient can accept an invitation. Inviting, viewing, and canceling pending invitations in Settings works exactly as before.

July 23, 2026​

Connections

  • When you set up a new connection, Airbyte now warns you that the initial sync replicates all data in every enabled stream, which can mean a large volume of historical data. Because Airbyte Cloud bills based on data replicated, enable only the streams and fields you need, and if your source supports a replication start date, set a recent one to limit how much history is synced.
  • You can now complete OAuth authorization for the Amazon Seller Partner source when your Seller or Vendor account is in the Ireland (IE) region. Previously, starting the authorization for an Ireland-based account produced an invalid consent link.

July 17, 2026​

Connections

  • When you connect a source that authenticates through OAuth and the authorization is denied or fails, Airbyte no longer saves an invalid credential. The error is now surfaced so you can correct the problem and try again.

Platform

  • If you're invited to an organization but don't yet belong to one, the app now loads correctly so you can view and accept your invitation. Previously these screens could fail to load when your account had no current organization.

July 14, 2026​

Connector Builder

  • When you test a stream in the Connector Builder, the test button now checks for configuration errors only in the stream you're testing, along with your global and user input settings. You can now test a stream even when a different stream in the same connector still has errors.

Platform

  • If your organization uses single sign-on (SSO), sign-ins are now rejected when your identity provider presents a user whose email domain your organization hasn't verified. This prevents unverified email domains from being used to access your organization.
